Review on Canon PowerShot Digital Stabilized 2 7 Inch by Ikki Martini

Revainrating 2 out of 5

believing that some people are not used to digital cameras and the need for perfect lighting to take good pictures

I bought this after reading some negative reviews and partly dismissing them, believing that some people are not used to digital cameras and don't need perfect lighting to get good, clear pictures. This is the first product I am returning to Revain after 10 years of ordering online. After charging the battery, I took some pictures around the house. The first thing I noticed and didn't like was that the display was incredibly grainy. I've never seen anything like this on any of my digital devices. Second delay. It took seconds for the camera to automatically recognize the need for a flash. Third, the image stabilization didn't work even with a small increase. Half of my shots were blurry. Lastly, I took a picture of my daughter in a pink top with a pink towel over her hair. The color was too saturated. To the point where my wife said it was too bright to even look at the picture. I bought this for an upcoming cruise as I don't want to lug around my DSLR, I need a pocket camera and something with a zoom function. This camera doesn't work. This might work if you're looking for a cheap camera that takes good pictures without using the zoom, but be aware that if you zoom in on your computer screen, you'll see that the zoomed image lacks detail. Went out to check out the Powershot SX280. Cameras in this price range are not worth their money.

Pros
  • Alright!
Cons
  • Expensive
